Hey fellas, i'm new here and thought i would introduce myself. there's a good chance that i'll be spending a good bit of time on here as i am trying to buy an '02 Si right now.

been without a car since november '10, which isn't a big deal because i've been away at school.

some old cars:
got this in '03, and drove it for 3 years. B16 w/ bolt-ons.

anyhow, i needed something fun and cheap, but more importantly, reliable now that i'm in school. so that's why i'm here.

Amazing! No cracks in that front dash? I must be seeing things lol. Those Recaros looks great for how old they are, and of course love the diving boards =]

Congrats on the ep3 too!

i swapped in a clean dash. :) the sport seats were in nice shape, the tan ones i took out were not in as good of shape. they're not recaros though. BMW quit using Recaro seats after the E21. :)

the car had bilstein sports, cosmo coils, ALL urethane bushings, etc. i had just replaced all the suspension bits and lowered the car. i have some BBS rs' that were supposed to go on it, but i totaled it... anyhow, thanks again.

Nice s14. Can the s14 drift?

[lucky7]

i don't like silver, i hate fwd, and it's not perfect. but i know a deal when i see on. should be a perfect DD while i'm in school. i drove it for about 15 minutes the other day, and it was a blast. love the seats, steering wheel and shifter.

i need to get a cheap short ram or something, because the one that's on it is a little janky. i need a key fob (it didn't come with one, and i really want keyless entry). i also need to get an ipod kit. i'm also trying to get a roof rack on ebay. i have the Thule one from my E30 still, however, i need the 400xt feet and a fit kit for it.

i have these around, but i have a feeling they're a bit too aggressive for an EP. :lol:

16x8.5 +15, 16x10 -3. 205/40's. after a little looking, i think that most people around here don't go for that style. haha.


but a quick question. i've been doing a little bit of reading about coils and whatnot. megans don't go very low. racelands do, but they're kind of crappy. D2's get mixed reviews, but some say they don't go low enough. i looked under the car, and as it's pictured above it's on Tien S techs. the wheels that are on it will go in the nearest dumpster in favor of something white/polished. BUT, i want to go about 3" lower than what it's pictured. suggestions??

plans:
-coilovers, and dumping it.
-wheels.
-mudflaps.
-intake.
-keyless entry.
-ipod kit.
-CF dash kit - the silver crap is scratched to hell.

other than that, it needs to be washed and driven. '02 w/ 136k on it.

Never thought i would see the day where you would go from Xceed to EPHatch! From One EPHatcher (and Xceeder) to the next Welcome! If you need anything hit me up brother!

-Potter

PS- I have the same Name on both forums. ;)

[lucky7]

i thought your name looked familiar. you live in Mn? i used to live in Mn. :D

tell me where i can find fender flares for this car. i'd rather run my negative offset wheels than deal with anything higher than 15mm. :)

thanks guys.

[H0ndas g0 Vr00m]

Hahah, yeah. Moved here 2 years ago in December of 08 with Brunson.

I believe Seibon makes them, or used to make them, for the front. Im not sure if they do anymore though :(

PS: I want your BBS rims, but they wouldnt fit! :( Guess ill just have to find another set cause i LOVE those rims.

[lucky7]

haha, me too. i could buy new lips for them, but i don't want to put more money into them. if they don't sell, i'll put them in the attic. i've always wanted a set, and i'll use them eventually.
